Hear my prayer, O non-existent God,
accept these cries into thy nothingness,
thou, who never leaves poor men unblessed
by your false comfort…

—Don Paterson, “Atheist Prayer”
from THE ARCTIC (Faber, 2023)

Today, March 23, is Atheist Day

Atheist Prayer
Don Paterson

after Miguel de Unamuno

Hear my prayer, O non-existent God,
accept these cries into thy nothingness,
thou, who never leaves poor men unblessed
by your false comfort. Your perfect fraud
was all I ever yearned for, my old friend:
when you withdraw, my memory is assailed
by every silly song and fairy tale
my mother read to sweeten the day’s end.

How great you are, my absent god! So rare
and boundless, an idea less than air:
O look how very thin the world has grown
in trying to meet you. For you and you alone
I suffer, Lord; for you, I die and die –
since were you to exist … Then so might I.

ATHEISM:
Having the courage to tell people that you're not afraid of their imaginary friend.
